A blizzard warning is still in effect along the coast, Plymouth County and Cape Cod.

The South Shore proved to be the jackpot. As of 11 a.m., about 18.3 inches had fallen in Norwell and Brockton had about 14.8 inches.

"It looks like the plows have kept up with it fairly well. It's ice pack, and it's going to be slippery. The temperatures aren't going to get probably much above probably 10 or 15 degrees, so that's obviously going to be an issue," Brockton Fire Chief Richard Francis said.

StormTeam 5 meteorologist Danielle Vollmar said Sandwich was seeing winds of 25 to 30 mph and gusts of 40 mph early Wednesday, creating near-blizzard conditions for most of the morning.

"Been out since 7 o'clock last night," said one plow driver. "The big issue is the wind and the snow being so light, it's blowing all over the place as we plow."

"The first storm we had wasn’t nearly as much snow, but it was heavy. The rain fell on top of it. It was like moving cement. This is like moving air," said Hingham's John Frabotta.

Southeastern Massachusetts also saw some of the worst road conditions Tuesday night as the storm ramped up, with drivers reporting double -- if not longer -- times to get home.

In addition to snow, minor erosion is possible along the Plymouth County coast, the north side of Cape Cod, along the ocean side of the outer Cape and the east side of Nantucket.
